Wand wants warm-up fight before Fedor

[Wild]

According to Silva, who is currently in negotiations with Japanese upstart promotion Rizin Fighting Federation, revealed that he has the option to face Fedor but would like a warm-up fight beforehand.

"There's a possibility of fighting Fedor, who is an opponent I would really like to fight. I'm not just talking, but can't be the first one, right?" Silva told Combate (h/t MMAFighting.com). "Now that I haven't fought in two years, I can't get him right away. I need to do some fights first, get my rhythm back, and when the promotion thinks it's time and I feel I'm in a good rhythm, I would really want to test myself against him, for sure.

"I've fought the best in the world but him. I would really like to test myself against him. I don't have anything against Fedor, but I would like to test myself and see how it goes."

A 2 on 2 bjj exhibition would be a good start.

 

[BanMe]

I think Wandy has a really good chance against Fedor. Maybe even better-than-even odds to win. The real question is if this fight will ever materialize.

[TheEmperorRises]

I would too.

So does this means Silva is going to give NSAC a big fuck you, and fight in Japan regardless?

Yep. Fuck them. My question about nsac is what are their qualifications to be the sanctioning body for mma?

Because they've been around so long. And been pretty much crooked and incompetent the entire time.

You left Vegas? I'm trying to get to NV. has to be better than Jersey. Although when it comes to MMA Jersey is pretty good to the sport.

I fucking loathe that place. I grew up there and its not all that everyone makes it out to be.. 128f is the hottest I've ever seen it, rather have the cold here in Wyoming.

And the air's like breathing a fucking brillo pad.

Iraq had cleaner air by far. The preceding sentence was not a joke.

Bingo. I hate that city. I told myself I'd only move back if I got a job making 75k+ or something MMA related.

My aunt has a place in henderson. I just go kick it with her if i ever want to go back. That town would drive me nuts after too long.

I'm a hot weather guy but thats a bit much. I've been to Vegas twice and just like the weather and people are nicer outside of my area. LOL
If you saw Episode 2 of Looking For a Fight, White says something like, "I don't go in East coast water in the summer." I knew exactly what he meant. Winter lasts like 8 months here as far as temps go.

Plus a lot goes down in the fight game in Vegas and I'd just like to be around it without having to stay in hotel.
